1.0 Introduction
The Legrand 4 Port Gigabit Enhanced Router/Switch (P/N DA1054) is a flexible hardware
configurable switch/router product designed to be used as a router with an integrated 4-port Gigabit
rd
Ethernet switch, or as a 5-port Gigabit Ethernet switch for use with a 3 party external router. It is
the perfect solution to connect a small group of PCs to a high-speed broadband Internet connection
(see Figure 1). Up to 253 users can have high-speed Internet access simultaneously via one single
IP address (Internet account) of the Cable/xDSL modem.
With its built in NAT technology, this product also serves as an Internet firewall, protecting your
network from being accessed by outside users. All incoming data packets are monitored and filtered.
The Router can also be configured with Client Filtering, to filter internal users’ access to the Internet.
The built-in 4-port Gigabit Ethernet Switch lets users plug the network cable into the device without
buying additional Hub/Switch.

1.1 Features

Internet Access Features
 All Gigabit Ports Support. Auto-negotiation, auto MDI/MDI-X Ethernet ports. DA1054 eliminates
most cabling inconvenience. One WAN port, 10/100/1000Base-T is connected to your DSL or
Cable modem. The other 4 LAN ports, 10/100/1000Base-T are used to connect to local LAN.
 Shared Internet Access. All users on the LAN can access the Internet through the DA1054 using
only a single external IP Address. The local (invalid) IP Addresses are hidden from external
sources. This process is called NAT (Network Address Translation).
 Fixed, PPPoE, Dynamic, and Direct Connection Support. Various WAN connections are
supported by DA1054.

Advanced Internet Functions
 Internet Communication Applications. DA1054 supports Internet communication applications,
such as interactive Games, Telephony, and Conferencing applications, which are often difficult to
use when behind a Firewall

blocked by the Firewall. The ability to define and allow such applications is provided, to enable
such applications to be used normally.
 Virtual Servers Support. This feature allows Internet users to access Internet servers on your
LAN. The required setup is quick and easy.
 DMZ. Support. DA1054 can translate public IP addresses to private IP address to allow
unrestricted 2-way communication with Servers or individual users on the Internet. This provides
the most flexibility to run programs, which are incompatible with Firewalls.
 URL Filter. Keyword based URL Filter to block access to undesirable Web sites by LAN users.
 Firewall. It supports Stateful Packet Inspection firewall for DoS (Denial of Service) attacks.
 Dynamic DNS Support. When used with the Virtual Servers feature, allows users to connect to
Servers on your LAN using a Domain Name, even if you have a dynamic IP address which
changes every time you connect.
 VPN Pass through Support. PCs with VPN (Virtual Private Networking) software using PPTP,
L2TP and IPSec are transparently supported - no configuration is required.
 Access Control .Using the Access Control feature, you can assign LAN users to different
groups, and determine which Internet services are available to each group.
 Password protected Configuration. Optional password protection is provided to prevent
unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and settings.

1.4 Installation
The DA1054 4 Port Router/Switch is best installed during new construction in two steps; at “roughin” after the Electricians are done, but prior to drywall being installed, and at “trim-out” after the
drywall is installed and painted. These steps are detailed below:
A. “Rough-in” steps:
1. A single dedicated Cat 5e/6 should be run in the walls from the structured wiring
enclosure location in the home where the 4 Port Router/Switch will be installed to each
outlet location in the rooms where Internet service is required (leave extra cable at both
ends).
NOTE: Run Cat 5e/6 cable at least 12” from electrical cabling (preferably in a separate
stud cavity) and cross electrical cables at a 90° angle. Use loose Velcro-style cable ties
for bundling. If stapling is required, use specialty staples to avoid compressing the
cable.
2. At the selected outlet locations, a single gang box or low voltage bracket should be
installed, with the extra Cat 5e/6 cable in the box, or attached in such a way that it may be
fished out after the drywall is installed.
B. “Trim-out” steps:
1. The Cat 5e/6 that was secured at each of the outlets should be pulled out and terminated
with a 110 punchdown tool on an RJ45 insert and attached to a wallplate, which is then
installed in the single gang box or low voltage bracket.
2. In the structured wiring enclosure the Cat 5e from the outlets may be terminated with a
110 punchdown tool onto a Legrand Network Interface Module or with RJ-45 plugs, using
a tool such as our EZ RJ45 Modular Plug Hand Toll (P/N 364555-01) for direct connection
to the DA1054 4 Port Gigabit Router/Switch.
3. The 4 Port Gigabit Router/Switch is installed in the structured wiring enclosure by slipping
the tabs into the square holes, and using the push pin in a round hole to secure the router.
4. If the outlet cables were punched down at a Network Interface Module, Cat 5e/6 patch
cables (available separately) are then connected from the 6 Port Network Interface
Module to the input ports on the 4-Port Gigabit Router/Switch.
5. An additional Cat 5e/6 patch cable is then connected from the network (WAN) port of the
4 Port Gigabit Router/Switch to the Cable Modem or DSL Modem housed in the
structured wiring enclosure and make sure the routing switch is in the “On” position.

6. The 4 Port Gigabit Router/Switch is powered with an AC to DC adapter which also needs
to be plugged in to an AC source.
7. Follow the steps in the next two sections for configuring the router.
NOTE: Use proper tools and standard TIA 568A rules to prep and terminate the Cat 5e/6
cable, such as a Cat 5 Cable Stripper, an RJ45 Crimp Tool and a 110 Punchdown Tool.

1.5 Initial Configuration
The DA1054 4 Port Gigabit Router/Switch is typically configured in one of two ways; (1) From a
portable PC connected through one of the Local Switch Ports on the Router/Switch Module in the
enclosure, or (2) From a PC in one of the rooms of the house, connected through an outlet in the
room to the enclosure where it is patched to (or directly connected to) one of the Local Switch
Ports (see Figure 3). In either case, the PC must have an Ethernet Network Interface Card to
communicate with the Router/Switch.
Figure 3
A. Configuring a Network Interface Card to talk to the Router/Switch
NOTE: The steps below assume that your PC’s network interface card is set to DHCP, or in
other words, to obtain IP addressing automatically. The steps also assume that the 4 Port
Gigabit Router/Switch is set to its default settings and that all the cables previously
discussed are properly connected. It is also possible to perform these steps by configuring
your computer (with installed Ethernet Network Interface Card) to talk to the Router/Switch
on its specific IP subnetwork (192.168.40.xxx). The Router/Switch’s default IP address in
that subnetwork is 192.168.40.254, so your PC’s Ethernet Card can be temporarily assigned
an IP address, (like 192.168.40.10), on that same subnetwork to talk to and configure the
Router/Switch. Giving the PC a specific IP address is also called assigning it a Static IP
address, as compared to a Dynamic IP address that is typically assigned by a service
provider when your PC’s network interface card is configured for Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP).

NOTE: Before doing any PC IP Address re-configuration, make sure you first write down all
of the current IP settings. XP users can set “last known useable configuration” under
System Accessories before re-configuring.
B. Logging on to the Router/Switch
1.
With your PC connected to one of the local ports on the Router/Switch and its front panel
routing switch in the “On” position, open a browser and enter the Router/Switch’s default
IP address (192.168.40.254), and click “Go” (see Figure 4) to get the login page.
